Hi Tara. For me, the rental commission is set by the broker, as is the commission split. There is alot more involved in doing rentals then it seems and when co-broking, there is not much that can be offered out on them. Basically they are split among however many agents are involved in the rental, so the more people involved, the less that can be offered. But as Joe has stated here, I too have found that renters are a good investment because if we find a good fit for them when they are looking for an apartment, they will come back to us when they are ready to purchase. So the rental commission may not be alot to work with someone else on, but it is good to incorporate rentals into the list of services a company provides. It makes for well versed, more knowledgeable agents. - Thu Oct 15 2009, 15:44
